A highly diastereoselective approach for the synthesis of protected α,β-dioxyaldehydes derived from (<i>Z</i>)-tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl "super silyl" enol ethers is described. A general and highly <i>syn</i>-stereoselective aldol reaction directed by the "super silyl" group catalyzed by triflimide (HNTf<sub>2</sub>) is developed providing α,β-dioxyaldehydes and 1,2,3-triol fragments which can be a useful platform for the elaboration of natural and unnatural sugar derivatives. ...[more]
